Flavorful Encounters at UnFrench Bistro

There's always something new to discover and experience at UnFrench Bistro. For Chef Michelle Adrillana, UnFrench Bistro is her playground for both traditional and even unexpected label-defying culinary creations. Like the Burrata Salad and the Laing Lobster Thermidor...


Not one to be limited or boxed in by labels, Chef Michelle Adrillana boldly takes a creative and progressive approach to her culinary style combining classic French techniques with real and honest flavors at the aptly named UnFrench Bistro. Take her Laing Lobster Thermidor, just one of her new creations for the Pescatarian Bistro Prix Fixe Menu for another pleasantly unexpected encounter at UnFrench Bistro. Curious? Then, read on...


Years in the culinary industry provided Chef Michelle Adrillana a wealth of experiences including her own unique style and approach to flavors. At UnFrench Bistro, this unique vision is showcased in a lavish repertoire of masterfully executed dishes for that elegantly refined finish. But no, UnFrench Bistro isn't your usual fine dining establishment (for more on UnFrench Bistro, see my posts Untraditional, Unconventional and Totally Unexpected. At UnFrench Bistro... and Unclutter Your Lunch with The Bistro Set Lunch at UnFrench Bistro).


Her innovative culinary style has earned quite a following with dishes like the inventive Laksa Escargot, a dish that defines Chef Michelle Adrillana's unconventional style.


And Chef Michelle Adrillana does not hold back on flavors. The sharp notes of the classic laksa bring a flavorful burst to the palate rounded out by the nutty notes of the plump and succulent escargot and elegantly smoothened by butter. A layer of soothing heat completes the flavors. 


A classic dish is given the playfully unique UnFrench Bistro touch, pairing perfectly with a refreshingly crisp white wine. Don't forget to mop up the rich butter with a piece of crusty bread for another burst of richness.

Chef Michelle Adrillana begins with the freshest sustainable produce for her dishes, and the salad course is always a treat at UnFrench Bistro. The rich layers of contrasting yet distinct notes and textures deliver clean flavors for the perfect start to your feast at UnFrench Bistro.


Like butter, the fork-tender slab of beef on grainy mashed potatoes draped in a rich gravy with mushrooms delivers a savory punch for comfortingly familiar flavors, setting the stage for the next course...

The new Laing Lobster Thermidor is Chef Michelle Adrillana's own inspired take on the traditional seafood Thermidore with a whole lobster tail gently laid on a mound of local laing


From the succulent lobster tail draped in cheese and the savory richness of the local laing with its gentle and soothing mild heat simmered in coconut cream, the Laing Lobster Thermidor by Chef Michelle Adrillana is pure, unrestrained and unapologetic richness on a plate. Each component complements the other in a delicately balanced weave for another unique dish. The fresh and clean notes of the lobster are kicked up by the bold nutty flavors of the laing and smoothened by the creamy cheese for an elegant finish.

A side of steamed rice is served with the Laing Lobster Thermidor, a nice touch paired with the laing to complete the dish.


For dessert, the signature Taho Cheesecake is the perfect ending to another flavorful encounter at UnFrench Bistro.
